<p>Voppizzi: /* The catalog */</p>
<hr />
<div>The CERN Library has been in operation since the Organization was founded in 1954. The renovation work, completed in 2022, has expanded and modernized the library’s offerings, with the aim of providing a welcoming, functional space that meets the needs of employees <ref name=":1">CERN website, https://home.cern/new-cern-library-one-year/</ref>.<br />
<br />
The library is part of the [[SIS|Scientific Information Service]] (SIS), a department that also includes the CERN Archives, the Open Science service, and the [[INSPIRE]] platform, a leading resource for literature in particle physics <ref>The Scientific Information Service's website, https://sis.web.cern.ch/about-us/structure</ref>.<br />
<br />
== The collection ==<br />
Since its establishment, the library has been committed to providing CERN staff with the reference materials necessary for their research activities. The collection focuses primarily on key disciplines such as: particle physics (theoretical and experimental), accelerator technology and mathematics. <br />
<br />
To meet the needs of a broader audience, popular science materials have also been added over time, including works of fiction, art books related to science, and a section dedicated to children, designed to introduce them to the world of science.<br />
<br />
The [https://catalogue.library.cern/ catalog] includes a wide range of resources: books, conference proceedings, scientific articles, preprints, standards, and journals. Today, much of this material is also available in digital format, in the form of e-books, electronic journals, videos, and audiobooks.<br />
<br />
Over the years, the collection has grown significantly: from the initial 533 volumes in 1954 <ref name=":0">The Cern Courier, Volume 8, Issue 9, pp. 215-219, 1968, https://repository.cern/records/myxtz-1aa53</ref>, it has grown to over 16,500 books currently available on-site, in addition to more than 40,500 volumes stored in the archives. The digital collection also includes approximately 121,000 e-books, 6,800 videos, and 2,900 audiobooks <ref name=":1" />.<br />
<br />
== The catalog ==<br />
Originally, the library catalog was in paper format and organized using index cards divided into two sections: alphabetical and subject-based. The subject classification was based—and continues to be based—on the [https://udc-hub.com/index.php Universal Decimal Classification (UDC)], an internationally recognized library classification system.<br />

<br />
The CERN Archives operate in accordance with the [https://www.ica.org/?lid=5555 code of ethics] of the International Council on Archives (ICA).<br />

Since 1997, the Archives of CERN adopted the Operational Circular N° 3.<ref>Operational Circular N° 3, https://sis.web.cern.ch/archives/divisional_records_officers/guidelines_DRO/operational_circular3</ref><br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
Initially launched as a project in 1979 to support the writing of [[History books|CERN’s history]] on the occasion of its 25th Anniversary, the CERN Archives have since evolved into a permanent service with the mission of “supporting and preserving CERN’s documentary heritage for future generations.” <ref>''Discover the hidden treasures of CERN’s archive'', Anita Hollier, 2017, https://home.cern/news/news/cern/discover-hidden-treasures-cerns-archive</ref><br />
<br />
In 1979, the then Director-General, [[John Adams]], requested Division Leaders to make relevant documentation available to the Historical Archives and to appoint [[DRO|Divisional Records Officers]] (DROs) within each department to ensure the systematic identification and transfer of historically significant records.<br />
<br />
The CERN Archives were formally established in 1981, and the volume of archival holdings has continued to grow steadily since that time. <ref>''CERN Annual report 1982'', p. 148, 1982, https://cds.cern.ch/record/1475748/files/Annual%20Report%201982.pdf</ref> <br />
<br />
In 1997, a CERN Working Group on digital records was established, culminating in the publication, in 2001, of a report on Long-Term Electronic Archiving (LTEA).<ref>Long-Term Electronic Archiving (LTEA), https://repository.cern/records/1whrv-e2683</ref><br />

<div>The CERN Archives serve as the institutional repository for documentary material relating to the Organization from its foundation to the present day. They preserve a wide range of records, including correspondence, memoranda, reports, photographs, notes, historical objects, and other documents created or received during the mandates of successive Directors-General and senior management, as well as records produced by the CERN Council and its subordinate committees, Departments, and Experiments. [https://sis.web.cern.ch/archives/CERN_archive/about]<br />
<br />
The Archives also hold the papers of [[Wolfgang Pauli]], comprising correspondence, manuscripts, and other materials documenting his scientific work, together with his [[Nobel Prize]] awarded in 1945. [https://sis.web.cern.ch/archives/CERN_archive/about <nowiki>[1]</nowiki>] Pauli’s archival collection was donated to CERN by his wife in 1960. [https://timeline.web.cern.ch/cern-commemorates-wolfgang-pauli <nowiki>[2]</nowiki>]<br />
<br />
The CERN Archives operate in accordance with the [https://www.ica.org/?lid=5555 code of ethics] of the International Council on Archives (ICA).<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
Initially launched as a project in 1979 to support the writing of CERN’s history on the occasion of its [[25th Anniversary]], the CERN Archives have since evolved into a permanent service with the mission of “supporting and preserving CERN’s documentary heritage for future generations.” [https://home.cern/news/news/cern/discover-hidden-treasures-cerns-archive <nowiki>[3]</nowiki>]<br />
<br />
In 1979, the then Director-General, [[Sir John Adams]], requested Division Leaders to make relevant documentation available to the Historical Archives and to appoint [[Divisional Records Officers]] (DROs) within each department to ensure the systematic identification and transfer of historically significant records.<br />
<br />
The CERN Archives were formally established in 1981, and the volume of archival holdings has continued to grow steadily since that time. [https://cds.cern.ch/record/1475748/files/Annual%20Report%201982.pdf <nowiki>[4]</nowiki>] <br />
<br />
In 1997, a CERN Working Group on digital records was established, culminating in the publication, in 2001, of a report on Long-Term Electronic Archiving (LTEA).<br />
